Influential menswear designer Raf Simons was born in Belgium in 1968, where he studied industrial design and took up a career as a furniture designer and interior decorator. It wasn’t until 1995 that he ventured into fashion design, launching his own menswear label, using his self-taught fashion skills. Inspired by youth sub-cultures, the Raf Simons aesthetic is innovative and sporty, often using a clean palette of grey, black and white.
